Real Club Nautico Calpe

We were lucky to have the restaurant only for both of us during dinner. the attention was very good, the quality of the fish that offered us very well. the price is expensive, but also pays the quality.

Restaurante en el Club Náutico de Calpe, local un poco antiguo, con buena terraza en el pantalan, con buenas vistas al Peñón. De entrantes gamba blanca, muy fresca, tellinas y esgarraet. De principal arroz meloso de pulpo y panceta, el arroz un pelin duro, postres variados. Buen servicio.

El menú de arroz está muy rico pero la cantidad no es muy grande. El servicio y el sitio ideal en el puerto de Calpe rodeado de barcos

This restaurant is such a shame, it is huge could quite easily seat 150 people at a time, it is in a fantastic location right next to the harbour with the sunset in front view, but the food is poor the service is awful. We had a mixed paella (reasonably simple fare), well if you can imagine a cooked chicken with the breasts, legs, thighs wings removed then take a machete chop the remains into chunks, that was what we were served. I laughingly say “served”, more thrown on the table by the surliest waiter I have ever known. I won’t go on, you can imagine the rest …….

We last enjoyed a meal at the club 4 years ago so, whilst in the marina for the night decided to try the club again. We chose the set €30 3 course meal. In advance of the first course we were given a langoustine with aoli. We started with gazpacho very tasty and the croutons were properly crisp. Before our main we had three little sorbets. For mains Sarah had sea bass (huge) and I had shoulder of lamb (also huge) and very tender, all with veg. We pigged on two sorts of tart then coffees and given limoncellos. With a bottle of good Albariño, fizzy water etc the bill totalled €85. We staggered back to the boat feeling replete and thoroughly over fed! Service throughout was very professional, friendly and attentive. Much enjoyed!
